Abstract:
The treatment of chronic wounds is usually a major challenge for the involved medical staff. Various different treatment options have to be tested achieving a satisfactory result. In this retrospective case report, we describe successful treatments with hyaluronan acid ester fleece in six patients with chronic wounds of different origins. Furthermore, all patients received compression bandages or compression stockings, two patients were treated additionally with pressure relief devices and all were debrided if necessary. The chronic wounds of five out of the six patients healed completely over a period of 1.5-11 months or only with a minimal residual defect. However, one patient was still resistant to therapy over five months. In summary, the treatment with hyaluronan esters achieved good results especially in patients with complex medical history that makes a successful therapy particularly difficult.
